      Well done, your illiteracy underwhelms you.
      Class./ (kla:s) / noun. a collection or division of people or things sharing a common characteristic, attribute, quality, or property. A group of persons sharing a similar social position and certain economic, political, and cultural characteristics.
      Eric and his team are a class act.
      Their generous and genuine devotion to the offroad community is selfless, they work tirelessly and free of charge.
      For many competing in the wrecker games, their work is their business, ethically and financially, and there’s nothing wrong with that.
      However, Eric and the whole of the Recovery Team, do this for the love of the sport and the challenge, no more, no less.
      Yes, they make a little on the proceeds of this YT channel, but it’s chicken feed compared with the larger channels in the business.
      You debase yourself with your comment, and should be ashamed.

I am a very long time fan of BSF, and am glad that a lot more people got to see how kind hearted, funny and most of all how talented you are by having more exposure by being in the games. Looking forward as I always do to seeing your next video. Thanks again for all you do BSF!!

    One of these days when you are driving near Georgetown Colorado, just the the Eisenhower tunnel entrance, you should stop by in Georgetown and ride the Georgetown Loop. The loop was an engineering marvel that helped the train climb up a grade that was much more manageable to climb on the route the train needed to originally haul ore.

    You did well at the wrecker games for what you have to work with. From the outside anyway your truck looks almost stock. A low budget build unlike some of your competition. I'm glad you made the long trip to help entertain us and the thousands of fans that were there in person. Hope you didn't hurt your truck much, nothing like an old square body. Since I live in the rust belt they are getting to be fewer and fewer of them every year. The last one I had was about 10 years ago. It was just a half ton, long bed with the 4.3 and a 2WD. I was mostly a van guy instead of pickups. I have had vans since 1974 and still have an 85 (chevy of course) 1 ton that I pull the car trailer with.
